Movie Magic or Awful Adaptations: The Best and Worst Movie Tie-Ins

This week we're headed to Tinseltown, doll. That's right, the dream factory has come a-knockin' and it's time to talk about the best and worst movie tie-in games. From scantily clad babes performing kung fu moves to top-down tactical thrillers, the Boys dissect the mainly terrible, but sometimes great, film forays into gaming, as well as which films are absolutely ripe for adaptation. But before all that, they discuss their games of the week, with Sarah catching up on one of Glenn's early gaming recommendations, Pierre's being absolutely dominated throughout the ages and Glenn's becoming souls-obsessed with two very different takes on the genre.
